Henry’s resume is unmatched and unrivaled. A champ in two divisions and an Olympic gold medalist - where most people will never come close even one of those accomplishments, Henry did all three and did it with style. We won’t see another rare talent like his in combat sports for a long long time, if not ever. 30-26 Merab

@@jaron-craighunter4485 I did not chop him down but I also don't take back any of what I said because I believe it all to be true. Henry is one of the absolute greatest to have ever competed. But his time has passed, as it does for all of us. I'm predicting Merab to win convincingly strictly based on where they both are in the sport currently. All the love and respect due for Henry but time favors Merab. I could also be wrong though! Either way, we will know for certain come Saturday.

I'm inclined to agree. Henry's competition was the previous generation. The only fighter in his list that could even be competitive in today's landscape is DJ. And imo he barely beat him. The last tough contender he beat was Marlon Moraes and well... I don't gotta say anything more about that

@@DrQualleFiggmann That's hilarious and ridiculous much similar to what Cejudo is doing. His biggest problem has always been the lack of jiu jitsu skills along with him being less aggressive now returning after the long layoff like you said, which we saw against Sterling. Cejudo thinks he knows everything but he clearly doesn't. I like his KZread channel but he has always been jealous of certain fighters and tries to explain what they lack and does wrong instead of actually learning the same stuff himself, which means that he doesn't even practice what he preaches.

@@alcottdevalte7440I agree. At the end of the day it seems like he came back because he probably needs money. He could have set himself well after the Cruz fight and now aim for fun money fights but instead the UFC wants him to fight hungry contenders to use his name. There was semi serious talks of him fighting Volk and he threw all of it away for "retirement" just to come back couple of years later and lose against sterling who gets booed 15 miles away from his hometown. Idk who advised him in all this but he messed up

Cejudo should have never retired. Hes panicing at this point. He needs to relax, enjoy the process, and if its a W, celebrate. He didnt look bad last time out, just didnt do enough, didnt seem confident enough. Merabs a beast. Hes got a lot on his plate. But if anybody can get it done.. its Triple C.
